In order to fuse two metal components, electric arc welding uses electrical heat to cause melting, which, when cooled, forms a solid connection. In order to protect the molten metal from exposure to the atmosphere and stop chemical reactions, slag is injected throughout this operation. A power source that creates an electric arc between the metal material and the electrode to be fused is necessary for this process. Both consumable and non-consumable electrodes, as well as alternating or direct current, are used by welders. An electrode is a conductor that creates the heat required for melting and fusing by sending electric current to the metal to be welded. Whether an electrode is consumable or non- consumable depends on the specific arc welding process being used. The electrical energy needed for the arc welding process may be obtained from a variety of power source methods. Constant voltage and constant current power sources are the most common varieties.
